CHICAGO, I'LL, August l0.-Corn Is
kiog. Secretary Stone announced
from the Bard OF Trade gallery today
that traders In corn would tomorrow
take charge OF the wheat pit. while
wheat traders would take the places
lately occupied by the corn crowd
The move was rendered necessary by
the greatly increased trading in corn,
while the wheat crowd has become so
email as to require but little room.
The hot wind which blew through the
great exchange room had the same ei-
feet on prices that IL had on the mer.
curry. Everything went up. Operat-
ore, sweltering with the beat, were
excited over tbs situation. The signal
service showed no rain in the corn
belt, no rain to help the coming acre
age oil wheat, no rains 10 help past
urec. The reports OF ruiusd f,lds
were more numerous and forcible
than ever. The outside orders were
TO buy corn, aud local speculators
climbed over each other In attempts b
pufchHe, with the receiver ais, tax
ing hand. May and Sep,em bsr
corn was bought In tremend BUS
quantities by the crowd nearly
all day. Ga ihe bnlRes the crowd
would sell, bnt would load mp again on
break Of toto. Tho, government
report, while not rs unfavorable M sx.
pectsd by many OPERATOR, induced
some selling ct the higher pricee, but
considering the large shortsgs In the
hay crop, there wtro operators who
believed In present, II not higher,
prices for corn. The market opened

closing prices Of yesterday; was firm,
and advanced with slight changes OF

closing prices. Whea, was dull aud
fesiurelees, though prices advanced ic
above yesterdays closing and left Of

corn had much to do with the d m.
ness in gheat, but this neglected cereal

report on this crop shows no material

opening for future deliveries OF oats,
the market being bullish all through
in sympathy with corn. This demand
